Personally asking

  Hi there, folks! With our mid-month fundraising deadline expiring at midnight tomorrow, I wanted to personally ask if you’ll make a donation right now. I’ll quickly explain: At the end of the month, we’ll close the books on the second quarterly fundraising deadline of the year, and …

We’re officially up against Donald Trump’s handpicked candidate, Herschel Walker

  This is important: Herschel Walker (R) is now officially the GOP nominee for Senate here in Georgia, meaning he and I will be facing off this November. With the entire GOP establishment behind Walker, keeping this seat and the Senate blue will come down to your grassroots support. S…

Mondays, right?

  Hey folks — I’m not a huge fan of Mondays, and I’m sure you aren’t either. After spending the weekend with my family and friends, it’s not always easy to get back into the swing of things. There is one exception, though. The best Monday of my life was on January 4, 2021. It was the…

What John's been up to recently

  Team — Last week, John made his way home to meet with communities in the Colorado high country, celebrate the progress we’ve delivered for the Centennial State, and hear from folks about the issues they’re most concerned about. Whether discussing our clean energy transition or how w…

The story behind my tattoos

  Hey, it's John Fetterman. We both know I don’t look like a typical politician. Maybe that’s why my tattoos are *literally* the first thing people Google about me. Well enough Googling. Today I’ll tell you about my tattoos myself. On my left arm I have the zip code 15104. That’s Bra…

The Equality Act

  Happy Pride Month, folks! Pride Month is a time to honor and celebrate the achievements of the LGBTQ+ community, and to recognize that we still have lots of work ahead of us to achieve full equality for all people — including transgender and non-binary folks. We must remember that P…

We must fight back

  Heads up: this email discusses gun violence. Hi folks, The last few weeks have been heartbreaking. Since the attack on an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas that tragically took the lives of 19 children and two adults, there have been more than 20 other mass shootings. These massacr…

I'd love to hear from you

  Hey folks! We just capped off a couple days in Colorado’s high country, where we met with local leaders, visited small businesses, and spoke to folks about the issues facing our mountain communities. Getting to talk with folks from all over Colorado is one of my favorite parts of th…

It’s humbling to be your nominee for U.S. Senate.

  Friends — I’m honored to officially be North Carolina Democrats’ nominee for U.S. Senate. This moment could not have happened without the support of tens of thousands of people like you. It’s humbling. But the truth is, it is only going to get harder from here. There is a lot of wor…

This race isn't just about Democrats vs. Republicans

  Ron Hanks might be the frontrunner in the GOP primary to flip my seat, but he doesn’t reflect Colorado’s values, team. He’s an insurrectionist who loudly championed Trump’s Big Lie while trying to make it harder to vote here in Colorado. He wants to repeal the ACA, which would stri…

  Hey folks — The last thing I want to do today is take up your time, but I have an important request, so I’ll make this really, really quick: Our end-of-month fundraising deadline is at midnight tonight, and it comes right as national Republicans are kicking off the summer with ad bu…

I really need you if we’re going to hold this seat

  Friends — I’ll be honest with you. I never thought this is how it’d go. When Gabby and I got married, I never thought this is the way things would turn out. I never thought I’d run for public office. She was the elected official in the family, and on the International Space Station,…

Ah, summer.

  Hey folks — I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait for summer to start. It’s one of the best times of year to take in all of the amazing landscapes Colorado has to offer, plus, who doesn’t love barbecues on the 4th of July? In Colorado, and all battleground states, summer is also …

Hold on to your hats

  Team — Tie your shoelaces, buckle your seatbelts, and hold onto your hats, because things are about to heat up. Senate Republicans’ campaign fundraising arm just announced a mind-boggling $53 million ad buy as they aim to flip the Senate this year. That means money is going to flood…

re: Michael Bennet’s insurrectionist opponent

I know these emails can be a little annoying

  Hey there — My team and I were just running through our budget and noticed our finances aren’t where we’d like them to be at this point in the month. I know these emails can feel a little annoying at times. To be honest, asking for your hard-earned money is my least favorite part of…

Hate to bother you

Everything could change in Colorado

We just secured the Democratic nomination for Senate

Lives are at stake

So angry I can hardly type

  I’m so damn angry I can hardly type this message to you: A leaked draft opinion shows the Supreme Court has voted to overturn Roe v. Wade, and they could make that ruling official soon. It’s our worst nightmare coming true – the END of Roe v. Wade. I ain’t gonna lie to you: The Sena…

We must fight back

Reproductive rights are non-negotiable

  Friend — The Supreme Court’s leaked opinion overturning Roe v. Wade is unacceptable. Reproductive rights are non-negotiable. Period. For almost 50 years, Roe v. Wade has been the law of the land and protected the constitutional right to choose. If Roe is overturned, lives will be at…
